17-3x+15=2-13x
Use the distributive property to multiply -3 by x-5.
32-3x=2-13x
Add 17 and 15 to get 32.
32-3x+13x=2
Add 13x to both sides.
32+10x=2
Combine -3x and 13x to get 10x.
10x=2-32
Subtract 32 from both sides.
10x=-30
Subtract 32 from 2 to get -30.
x=\frac{-30}{10}
Divide both sides by 10.
x=-3
Divide -30 by 10 to get -3.
